SAMUEL HO ARE
STIRS NATIONS
London, June 11 (IP) A bold con
ception of a world divided into eco
nomic units, advanced by Sir Sam
uel Hoare, first lord of the admir
alty, In his first speech since his
relncluslon In the cabinet, was a
diplomatic sensation yesterday.
It was interpreted by many as a
warning that the government is
cooling toward the League of Na
tions, after leading It all during the
dangerous months of the Italian
Ethiopian war, and aa calculated to
weaken measurably the foreign pol
icy of young Anthony Eden, foreign
secretary.
Hoare made his speech In the se
cluded atmosphere of the Cambridge
Union at Cambridge. He used the
round term "half dozen" In discuss
ing economic units. He mentioned
only three the nations of continen
tal Europe, the United States and
fellow American "friends" and vast
Soviet Russian.
It was assumed that a fourth unit
would be the British empire; a fifth
might be Japan and China.
That left, If the "half dozen" idea
were pursued, one unit in which the
dominant nation might be Germany,
France or fascist Itaiy. None was
mentioned at all in Hoare's speech.
It was conceded he might not have
meant to make a binding division of
the whole world, but he left little
room for the ambitions of many
powers.

RELIEF FUNDS
RESTRICTED BY
MARTIN EDICT
(Continued from page 1)
indebtedness certificates against an
ticipated profits of the liquor com
mission for relief purposes.
"The depression is over and steps
must be taken to reduce the relief
load In Oregon to a point where It
will balance tne cash Income," the
governor advised Goudy, adding that
he took the action "simply because
the emergency has now passed."
"I do not propose to add the cost
of relief onto the backs of the tax
payers of this state. They have a
heavy load to meet.
From now on the state relief
committee will have to operate on
the revenue supplied it by the liquor
control commission as provided In
the law.
"The public works program Is of
sufficient size and distributed about
the state extensively enough to take
care of those who are employable.
In addition to that we have the
seasonal crops, the harvest of which
will require many workers and en
able them to make enough to pay
tneir own way."
Heretofore it has been the prac
tice when relief funds became ex
hausted for the state to Issue cer
tificates of Indebtedness against an
ticipated liquor commission profits,
and at times these pledged obliga
tions have amounted to as much as
$900,000 but they have all been
paid off.
Governor Martin warned Goudy
that hereafter the relief committee
must keep within the estimated rev
nues - of the ' liquor commission,
which last year amounted to about
$1,800,000.
To meet the existing emergency
Governor Martin today arranged
with A. K. McMahan, chairman of
the liquor commission, for the Im
mediate turnover of 8150,000 in ac
crued liquor profits, but advised
Goudy that further turnovers must
be controlled so as not to impair the
operating capital of the liquor
board. ... .
Portland, Ore., June 11 (IP) Elmer
R. Goudy, state relief administra
tor, said it would be several days
before he could determine the re
suits of Governor Martin's order to
day placing the relief program on
a pay-as-you-go basis.- -
He pointed out, however, that
nearly 7,000 persons have been tak
en from relief rolls since the first of
April, and others will find seasonal
employment during June and July,
easing the burden. On May 31
there were 26,713 persons on relief
Oovernor Martin refused to sign
8200,000 certificates of Indebtedness
against anticipated state liquor pro
fits, and ordered that expenditures
be balanced "against actual cash
Income."
Goudy said he could not tell oft
hand what transition problems will
be Involved, but Indicated there
would be no hardship when the new
system becomes established.
"There will be some further re
duction In relief rolls, but not much,
as most of the employables now
have Jobs," he said.
GRAZING ACT CASE
UNDER ADVISEMENT
Portland, Ore., June 11 W) Fed
eral Judge John McNary took under
advisement today the case of two
stockmen charged with trespassing
by grazing ' their' cattle on Uncle
Sam's broad rangeland, and their
counter-claim that the Taylor graz
ing act Is unconstitutional.
- The counsel for Joe Odiago and
Cleto Achabel, Malheur county
stockmen, contended the act dele
gated unwarranted power to the
secretary of the Interior to make
rules granting grazing rights.
Odiago and Achabel said they had
other stockralsers were excluded
from grazing privileges they pre
viously enjoyed.
Manley Strayer, deputy United
States attorney, answered that the
act was similar to the forest reserve
act, which he said had repeatedly
been held unconstitutional.
Judge McNary indicated he would
return his decision next week.
